Stolen Car Found On Fire On The M1 At Ormeau

Police are on the job after a stolen car was found on fire on the M1 overnight.

The vehicle was found ablaze on the northbound side of the motorway near Exit 45 at Ormeau around 2:45am.

One fire crew managed to bring the flames under control a short time later.

Police confirmed the vehicle was listed as stolen.
